MYSTERIES OF THE PAST.
what Might BE Accomplished with Limit
Ieas Powers Of Vision and Locomotion.


Some years ago pamphlet was pub
lished by some anonymous author which
contained some very noticeable specula-
tions which may be mentioned in connec-
ton with the heaven OF Figuer. Starting
out with the announcement Of the fact
that light requires time in its passage
from point to point, he concludes that we
do not see, for instance, the sun as it is.
but as it was eight minutes before. The
sun might be annihilated and we would
still see it for eight minutes after the Oc-
currence Of the catastrophe. The time
required by the passage of a ray of light
between Uranus and the earth is two and
half hours; hence what is occurring on
either planet would not be visible to the
other until two hours and half after 10
had taken place. A resident Of Vega, II
he had the vision strong enough to see
what is happening on the earth, would
only see things after twelve years had
elapsed With these premises the writer
then proceeds TO say:
Surprising it to be possible that man
could move from point to point without
any employment of time and provided
with telescope which would penetrate
any distance and render all things visible,
it would be entirely possible to recall
every event in history, and to look on it
at the very moment of its occurrence. II,
for instance, we wished to recall Luther,
and see him before the counch of Worms,
we must transport ourselves in a second
TO fixed star, from which the light re-
quires about 300 years (or so much more
or less) in order to touch the earth. Thence
the earth will appear in the same state,
and with the same persons moving on II,
as il actually was at the time of the
reformation.
''Let lis imagine the traveller with in
finite powers Of vision in a star Of the
twelfth magnitude. He would see the
earth as it was in the time of Abraham.
Let us further imagine him moving fO>-
ward in the direction Of the earth with
such speed that in an hour he comes to Us
within distance Of one hundred millions
of miles, being then a. near rs as the sun
is, whence the sun is seen as it was eight
minutes before, and then we have this:
Before the eye Of the observer the entire
history Of the world from the thine u
Abraham to the present day passes by ia
an hour"
This is labor which is quite within
the power OF the superhuman spirit con
ceived by Figuer With limitless vision.
and the power to move through space at
will, he can at any instant become
witness OF any event which has ever Oc-
Cured in the universe. The soul curious
rs to the mysteries Of the past can thus
satisfy himself on every point Under
such an inspection there is no phase Ok
national or individual past that cannot
BE re-examined Poliuto' in Chicago

The Result of a Dream.

The story is being told at the clubs how
Mr.. Endicott invented the rough backed
playing cards, which are just making
their appearance. Mr.. Endicott is a men,
Der of various well known clubs, and at
one Of them he had passed an evening
playing cards, when in the night he had a
dream. lie dreamed that he was playing
poker and made misdeal. One of his
companions who had an excellent hand re-
preached him for making him lose the
benefit Of it,
S'Very we'll" Endicott said in his dream,
'ifyou had rough backed cards it wouldn' I
have happened. 1t isn't my fault"
When he awoke In the morning he re-
inembered his dream, and the idea Of
rough backed cards seemed to him good
one. He reflected, experimental, perfected
his improvement, patented it in three or
four countries, and is now likely to make
"a fortune out Of his clever and fortunate
dream. Boston Cor. Providence Journal
